Iowa’s three game win streak was snapped at Rutgers, Wednesday night. Ron Harper Junior gave the Scarlet Knights the 48-46 lead with a pair of free throws with two seconds remaining. It capped a dreadful shooting night for the Hawks who made only 17 of 61 shots.

That’s Iowa coach Fran McCaffery. The teams combined to commit 31 fouls and make just 35 field goals.

Keegan Murray led Iowa with 13 points and 13 rebounds and was whistled for a foul while guarding Harper in the final seconds.
